Ban Date: 3 Months Ago ( I'm not sure of the actual date )
Reason: Hacking / Illegal Mods
Hello Lokans, today is the day I will be submitting my first appeal. I want to start this appeal with coming straightforward and apologizing to everyone I might've affected. In this appeal I'll be talking about my experience cheating, my apologies to those I have affected, and how I've matured as a person.
- My experience on Loka and when I started cheating:
I started Loka in December of 2023 if I recall correctly. I was a recruit and had no idea how to actually play the server. I remember warping to a few fights and not playing the server again, atleast until mid 2024. I got back on as a recruit for one of my friends, warped to a few fights, and quit again. It wasn't up until June of 2025 that I truly started playing Loka and learning the server. I was completely legit and was playing for fun, never using Mouse Tweaks, Freecam, or any illegal mods. I played ranked like a normal player, ending my first season at Iron 2. I practiced when the ranked season was down, friendly dueling my friends who were better than me, warping to conquest, and playing Zyre. When the next ranked season started, I placed Iron 3. I queued a LOT of games (as most of you may know), going from Iron 3 to Diamond 1 in about 2 weeks. I was so excited and proud of myself as I had started playing Loka and Diamond Pot as a whole maybe 3 months prior to that. I stayed steady at Emerald 3 - Diamond 2 up until November, where I first hit Diamond 3. I stayed around Diamond 2 to Diamond 3, never being able to reach Netherite. Hitting Netherite was my one and only goal in this ranked season, for a few reasons. One, a lot of my friends doubted me saying I was "too bad" and I wouldn't be able to get it. And two, I really like the Gladiator title and the Netherite helmet, so I made this my main goal. After spending a week or two stuck at Diamond 2-3, I started doubting MYSELF and told myself that my friends were right, and I wouldn't be able to get Netherite. This was when I started cheating. I used Triggerbot and Auto Jumpreset on Doomsday Client, and to be honest I was pretty blatant with it. If I recall correctly I started cheating on the 17th of November, and was banned around the 25th. Meaning I spent a week cheating (give or take). I had finally reached Netherite. I was so happy and excited, I didn't even care to think and see the way I had gotten it made me a fraud, and to be brutally honest a loser. I kept cheating, and kept cheating. I peaked #4 on the leaderboard at Netherite 2, and this was when I got screenshared.
I want to start out with apologizing to the Staff Team, and especially Kxph for wasting his time and lying to him during the screenshare. I understand now that all I did was delay the inevitable, and upset more people than I already had. Secondly, I want to apologize to any staff members (if any) that had to deal with any reports regarding me. As I said before I was very blatant so I wouldn't be surprised if there were atleast a few reports. Third, I want to apologize to any players that I beat while cheating in ranked. I now realize that all I did was ruin the experience for the players just trying to enjoy the server.
- My conduct outside of the server
Since getting banned on Loka I stopped caring about Minecraft as much as a whole. I don't get upset like I used to, meaning I'm not toxic or anything like that anymore, unless it's playful banter. I've definitely taken some time to focus more on my life and trying to improve as a person. There's not much to say here but I do think that my conduct outside of the server could be better, and I will work on it.
Since my ban, I can say for a 100% fact I have matured. I’m not even remotely near as toxic or angry as I was when I played Loka. I still do some playful toxicity on other servers, such as saying "ez", but I have much more self control now compared to how much I had before. I’ve learned how to control my anger so much more than I knew how to while playing. I’ve made more friends, and overall, I manage my emotions much better instead of holding myself to unrealistic expectations due to my ego. My time away from Loka has made me realize that cheating does nothing but impact the experience for others. I now realize that players using cheats or macros or any kind of unfair advantages contribute nothing but causing players to get upset. At the time of this appeal I have exams coming up so I thought it would be a good time to appeal and wait for a response while studying for my exams.
I have not attempted to alt once.
Thank you for reading my appeal. In my 4 months being banned, I really reflected and realized what I did was nothing short of messed up. Even though this appeal probably won't get accepted, it feels like the right thing to do to apologize to everyone and atleast give the clear and 100% truth to everyone. I’m quite confident appealing now as I and can confidently guarantee I would never do anything like this again, and I really hope you can find it in your hearts to give me a second chance.
